Nitto 450 - one of the most useless tires in production.

All Nittos are terrible.

And the Yoko ES100 happens to be quite good.

No comparison.

Minus points for stupid polls?
Do some research on tire sites that carry these two particular products, etc.

I don't know, maybe he wants a tire that will last 80K miles.

Bologna skins are better than the crap-assed stock Michelin XGT/whateverthef*cktheyare's. That ain't saying much for the Nitto's.

Exactly my point

I hated those Civic Si tires.... and I'm sure Nittos aren't much better

Very true.

After having a set of 555's that were outperformed by a set of Kumho 711's, I decided to embargo (i love that word, even though it's probably not the best to use here) all products from Nitto.

What size are you looking to purchase? It may help narrow down your choices.

No, the right word would be "boycott".

Actually "proscribe" means to prohibit or outlaw.
I doubt Kendall can prohibit people from buying Nittos.
